Not gotta lie but If I didn’t watch this video i wouldn’t buy first car charger bro. Glad I bought it because it drives really good man! Love your videos
I bought my Dodge Charger 08 back In 2010! It has been running well I've spent I'd say 5k on it on maintenance and repair.... I bought it for 13k back I'm 2010, which was a great deal; with only 52k on it!
I got a 2013 charger with 40k miles for $13,000 and I love it, I’ve put close to 1000$ of mods into it and it’s super easy and fun to mod thanks to mopar! There great cars!
I just bought a 2010 Dodge charger with 72,000 mi for $2,700. The only reason why she sold it for this price is because there's a small little rip in the BACK SEAT and a small dent on the hood. Girl, I don't give a fuck! It's almost a new charger ... I'll take it. 😂
See this is why i love family, they be having some blessed prices 😂 if you haven't bought it already tell her if she can take payments i guarantee you she will lol
@@polpogiovanna7209 guess my family is the only exception, my grandma told me to pay her $2500 for an aging 2001 Honda Accord, in which she gave me a fake license plate and fake insurance with, but Ian paying ha
First car I owned was a '04 Nissan Altima 2.5L had it for 4 months someone hit me and it got totaled, next month got a '07 Dodge Charger SXT V6 I love it to death lol nice Video Mars!
kivens jean-louis I almost forgot about this comment lol but I ended up getting a 2014 charger instead, they run great and the sound is just awesome. I’ve had it for 2 weeks now and it’s just been nice to drive, you get a lot of compliments too on the look and sound and I’ve had younger kids in my neighborhood ask me to rev it for them lol
Got lucky and my parents financed a 2015 Dodge Charger for me, and it’s been nothing short of reliable. Absolutely no complaints, also got a really good deal on it
I got a 2007 R/T as my first car and I still have it and it still runs great! I'm 31 years old now, I've had it through my 20's ( awesome experience ) and I plan on keeping it for a very long time. ( i hope to be a 70 year old grandfather and say i still have my first car lol ) i'm from Montreal but i don't drive it in the winter. It helps keeping the body from rusting. It also helps on yearly gas consumption / insurance since i only drive it 6 months out of the year. Amazing first car and like you i would so do it again!
Hey I’m looking for my first car and I wanted to know which should I get (06 charger rt 53k miles, 10k is the price, a 12 charger police 5.7 83k 10k is the price and a 12 charger se 8 speed 74k miles, price is 12k, or a 12 se 8 speed with 81k miles and the price is 11k and they all have one owner and clean titles) so which one should I get?
@@jbcarsvids4128 also depends on the look.. I think all but the 06 have the one light strip in the back. Personally I like the rear ends of the 06 better. R/T Would be the way to go. You could always add a police pack if you wanted. These cars hold their value I paid 10k for my 07 R/t that had 93k miles... 6 years ago!
I have a 06 5.7L hemi R/T. My buddy let me drive his 3.5L v6 and honestly.. I didn't like it. Once you get a hemi, downgrading would make you feel shitty lol. Beautiful cars though.
@@MarspeedCars I'm from the future and I'm here to say your channel will grow and it won't be too long before you get a hemi rt Daytona. But no matter what I will always love you Dad.
The only thing that's dissapointed me in the over all charger is it doesn't come in a manual. I'm still getting one, but I feel Dodge could reach more of a market with that option
I’m going to look at a 2016 Dodge Charger SXT this weekend. I’ve been driving a 2008 Corolla for 9 years and I love it (most reliable cars in my opinion). But for some reason I’ve been having this urge to buy a Dodge Charger. 30k miles and $22k... not too bad. This video helped sway me so we shall see!!!
It really is a good car all around for anyone (based on my ownership experience). I bought my (torred) 2007 R/T 5.7 hemi with approximately 11k miles in early 2008. I still have the car in 2019! Body and paint have held up well, with only a small amount of rust visible (about the size of a quarter) at the bottom of the wheel well. This car now has approximately 113k miles on it (original engine and trans). Speaking of original items; the alternator, radiator, water pump, all hoses, all lights (with the exception of rear bulbs on one side) and the injectors all have 113k miles on them. Even the spark plugs are original! The only thing I have had to get fixed was the AC blower motor, ball joints (two occasions on that repair), brakes, and recently the emissions related equipment converter, O2 sensors. Oh, and the original battery died in the summer of 2018. A 10-year battery? Never had that experience before. I have owned any number of GM's and a Ford and they all had issues within 2 to 4 years of daily driving. This charger on the other hand? WOW! They definitely built this car with longevity in mind. I would buy another Dodge again! Hopefully 485hp hemi next time. Hellcat at $70,000 is a bit more than I want to spend on a car. No leaks either.
gonna be honest only thing that had me hooked was the hemi because I've been looking at 350zs and mustangs but this car seems like a great deal given the practicality and power compared to the other two and its a lot cheaper
KubieKiller86 geico. Student discount. Veteran discount. It's not a lot but it helps. No tickets. No crashes. I recently bought a 2014 dart and my insurance is only 143 a month for the charger and the dart
K's Garage i own a 2008. I bought it myself and its my first car. Its under my moms name and im listed as a driver and my insurance is $157 per month. I was absolutely shocked when I heard this seeing as i had gotten a 2003 nissan 350z quoted at $142 a month for full coverage. The 350, though, is a high performance sports car
My first car is my black 2006 dodge charger. I got her when she was stock now I've put all kinds of stuff on and in it. They are awesome cars!! I'm just trying to get a Hemi next
Rustybumper how much do you like it ? How much was insurance I’m trying to buy a 2010 Charger right now just havnt made a final decision if you could help me out a little I’d appreciate it
wasn't my first car , was actually a hands down all ford or nothing guy for the longest but after my wreck looking for a good any reliable car was hard in my area till I decided lets look into some dodges and my first drive in a charger I fell in love sense I'm a taller guy it was roomy enough I didn't feel crushed, like the video says some small fixes had to be done granted its a 06 with over 250k miles has been one of my bests and would happily recommend anyone starting out to get one.
My first car was a 2008 Dodge Charger super bee srt8 and ngl all that power was a lot to get used to. My ego definitely was way to high and it took me awhile to realize ya my car is fast and awesome and that I don’t need to race everyone to prove it lol. It’s at 142,000 miles and is still going strong. I plan on taking it to college and hope I never have to say goodbye to it. It’s also been an amazing project for me and my dad to work on improving.
Yea I'm first car is a dodge charger 2011 SE, i got it a few months back, and I LOVE HER!!!! Always wanted a dodge charger as a kid. Agree with the insurance issue and gas, but I kinda knew that before I got her, trying to give her a nickname ... like Roxanne XD
Just got my 2008 Dodge Charger, the other week, and I'm in love with my Charger, it's crazy I'm actually living a real life dream!!!!! :) gas can be a nightmare though.
I don't have a charger but I can pretty much relate... 18 years old and I own a 2005 Dodge Magnum SXT with the 3.5, it's a boat, no doubt, but it still is a little speedy, I purchased her with 52K miles for about $6,100 and insurance is about $110 per month. I love the magnum, lots of space, rides nice, and decent power. I do kind of hate the gas mileage though, I get about 14 MPG. None the less, like I said, its fun, reliable, and its a great car!
2006-07 R/T was and is my dream first car. But funny enough as the insurance photo you showed. My first car happens to be a Scion tC it's still really fun tho
Yeah, but keep in mind prices are gonna go down more and more as the years go by, even a year can make a big difference (also prices were in CAD if it makes a difference)
Semi-related story: I'm just about to purchase myself a 2010 Charger R/T with the 5.7L Hemi (July 2018). And let me tell you, I am SO fucking excited for it. However this will be my second car. My first was a 2003 Silverado with the 5.3L V8. While the Charger is a decent starter car, in my opinion I was a 10x better driver due to me having a Silverado first. Since it was so big I learned how to park in tight spaces and be generally cautious about size. Since it was a pig on gas, I learned to drive smooth to save on fuel. It's powerful but slow to accelerate, so you can't get into as much trouble and won't get as many tickets. You learned power control as well, cause it had near 300hp going to one rear tire on a light back end (eventually the diff would lock but not before some squealing hehe). So when I went to drive the Charger with the 5.7 Hemi, I never felt like it was an unmanageable beast. I never chirped the tires or ever felt like I gave it too much gas. I wasn't worried about it's size for a sedan either. And finally, having a pickup first will also teach you the most important lesson of all... Never underestimate how fun a car (or truck) can be, no matter what it is. You'd be surprised how well a 2003 Silverado handles if you have the balls to try! I am still giddy at the thought of me having a V8 Charger, but I still kinda miss my truck.
Just got a ‘14 black charger r/t back in October-first car. 3 months later still love it as much as when I was first surprised by it. Only complaint I have so far is gas. I don’t drive highway much, I live in a small town so 90 percent of my miles are city.
I have a Charger 2007 RT 5.7, bought it in 2010, I still have it and is my daily use car, engine and transmission still works like new, it has some details due the daily use, I probably have spent around 5 or 7k in the last 5 years in repairs and maintenance, most of the repairs where (sensors,shocks and front complete, A/C) and only a leaking problem solved with seals replacement, It's a great car, right now I'm thinking in buying a Challenger just for weekends car and keep the Charger for daily use, due it stills run smooth.
First vehicle is an 01 ram, still runs like a dream but needs some work done to it and after driving it for over a year I want to downsize for a daily driver, honestly looking for a charger with this body style I just absolutely love it for some reason, guess it just looks like a ram turned car
Just got my 2010 Dodge Charger Rallye with the 3.5 high-output. I love this car and wanted to have one like this for years! How is yours driving these days?
I’m currently driving an 02 ram 1500 with the 5.9L, and I’m looking at the v6 charger and I’m looking forward to its fuel economy lol. Good old Gertrude gets 11 mpg when I go to work😂
I’m 19. Trying for a 2011 charger. I will know if I got it tomorrow. Little late but I got the charger and so far I’m loving it. But now looking into the chargers more I want a hemi.😂
Hey bud been watching your videos latley as I just bought a 08 charger 3.5 , just heard in this video you’re in Toronto, maybe we will have to make a video sometime bro! I’m only two hours east of you
first car, 1985 Cadillac sedan deville...V8! miss that car! I'm 33yrs old now and I just got my first '10 dodge charger V6 3.5! love it! I live in Kuwait and I do notice that it burns coolant fast, especially during the 50 celcius summers so I do have to keep an eye on the coolant level and I use a desert type coolant which is pink color. The A.C. keeps up very nicely but either way its too dam hot in this country!! the dodge charger is a very popular car in Kuwait so parts are cheap its just trying to find a good shop to install them, the dealerships charge way way too much!! the insurance I have is $70 for the whole year, lol yes I said for the whole year, Kuwait has a lot of good things!! I am slowly looking for MODS so this channel is very helpful and I'm also looking to educate myself as well. So far I have had to replace the radiator, alternator, engine O-rings, timing belt, water pump and some small things here and there with the pulleys and re did the suspension...the Kuwaiti that had this car before me didn't take care of it but I got it for $2900 USD and I put approx. $3000 USD into it so overall $6000 isn't too bad with 230,000km. I am very happy and it all runs great now!
gas is really cheap for me living in the middle east lol I pay for approx. 65lt 6 KWD (Kuwait dinar) which is under $20 USD lol for a full tank! I also commute to work so the high way miles are very very good!! I consume more gas on my day off driving around here and there and I get approx. 460-500km per week if I'm just commuting to work...and not going anywhere after work.
My mom might give me her 2008 charger, but we’ve recently have had a mouse infestation at my place so we haven’t ridden in it for a while, hopefully we can fix everything wrong with it and I can use it in highschool
I got an 09 charger sxt about 6 months ago in the deep water blue, I've never seen that color charger before then and I loved it and I still do, I want to do some mods to it but I have to save for college
Had my 06 rt since 2010. Replaced my engine at 140k miles and now at 170k. Only thing about dodge is the car is heavy so replacing parts like control arms and tie rods are a norm
I’m 18 years old, just bought a 2012 Dodge Charger SE with 100k miles for $7,791 first car and cheapest insurance I could find is 300 per month liability only. 500 per month full coverage
My boss is giving me a charger for only $2000 he still working on it but he said "give me a week and I'll sell it to you." Although working at an auto shop gives headaches you can get some great deals if you find the right people.
Someone near my house is selling a 2010 Dpdge Charger SXT V6 for $3650. The car appears to be in good condition and it has 133k miles. Do you think this is a good deal? I'm going to check it out with my mechanic before buying.
The funny thing is I have a 2015 Mercedes e350 I crashed and am getting fixed tell me why I’m going back to my childhood and getting a 2010 rt over a rental
I've been considering buying a dodge magnum sxt for a while now as a second car the magnum being essentially a station wagon charger. Right now I use a saturn but I've been wanting something bigger and faster that I can use for more work oriented activitys... Like hauling cargo and hauling ass
I'm torn between wanting a Challenger or a Charger, considering that they are both of my favorite vehicles and since I already got a Dodge truck, I want a car that I want to ride around town on Friday and Saturday nights with friends, go on a Sunday cruise while others are in church. Since I'm 25 with a high paying job, I'm asking myself do I want to pull the trigger on getting one or wait around for a few years and find one at a right and reasonable price.
i really wanted to know more about the car, for example is it harder to drive it in the snow? Are speed bumps a huge problem? i really found the gas tip very helpful, due to me being 16 and buying my first car, heard a ton of cons about this car too, which made me quite hesitant but this video gave me hope :)
I made a video on driving it in the snow if you want to check that out! But it’s not good in the snow, you need snow tires and must be very careful. It’s great over bumps but the suspension wears out very fast I had to replace the front end twice in 4 years (cost of $1000-1500 each time). Now after 4 years of that same car (270,000 kms) it’s still going strong, nothing major broke down, only need to get fixing suspension both front and back over time. It was my first car at age 18 and got me through university. Was both fun and practical and I honestly would have done it all over again
Marspeed I’ve never thought you’d reply to my comment! Oh my god! I’m super interested in buying a Dodge Charger that was once a cop car, due to that it was torn from the inside, radio doesn’t work and the arm rest thingy is jankey and not well put, plus all the lights on the dashboard turn on, lady says it’s a sensor but I have my doubts about it, any advice?
Jennie Amador if you catch me at a good time I like to respond to interesting comments here and there that pop up haha :) I would have a mechanic check it out, it’s easy for people to lie or hide issues on a used car and even old cars in great condition will need work soon on something because parts break. I’d personally stay away seems like a lot to fix and repair unless you’re getting a crazy deal. If you find a car that was better taken care of you won’t be buying into someone else’s problems as much! Just my thoughts. I recently bought another charger, immaculate condition but still needed things like brakes and a steering part, just stuff that will wear out over time no matter how great the car is.
Marspeed I’m going to take it to auto zone, see if they can run a quick check on the car and see if they can tell me somethings about it, and the price I’m buying it for is so dirt cheap, still can’t wrap my head around the price lol, but it’s $1,700 (I know) it’s be nice if I can send photos of the car, the body isn’t bad at all except for a dent in the front, interior is okay except for the arm rest, and the “sensor”
I just bought my charger, its a 2007 and I’m 17 so far in loving it :) It’s my first car and people at school turn heads so its pretty fun.

I bought a 2010 charger, I'm 16 about 10 months ago, I'm looking to upgrade it in the future
TheCanadian18 how much do you pay for insurance ?
Rustybumper how much do you like it ? How much was insurance I’m trying to buy a 2010 Charger right now just havnt made a final decision if you could help me out a little I’d appreciate it
wasn't my first car , was actually a hands down all ford or nothing guy for the longest but after my wreck looking for a good any reliable car was hard in my area till I decided lets look into some dodges and my first drive in a charger I fell in love sense I'm a taller guy it was roomy enough I didn't feel crushed, like the video says some small fixes had to be done granted its a 06 with over 250k miles has been one of my bests and would happily recommend anyone starting out to get one.
My first car was a 2008 Dodge Charger super bee srt8 and ngl all that power was a lot to get used to. My ego definitely was way to high and it took me awhile to realize ya my car is fast and awesome and that I don’t need to race everyone to prove it lol. It’s at 142,000 miles and is still going strong. I plan on taking it to college and hope I never have to say goodbye to it. It’s also been an amazing project for me and my dad to work on improving.
Just got my 08' Charger with a 106,000 miles for 5,700 love this car
Bart Simpson you paid 5,700? Or do you have a monthly note? I’m a first time buyer
HavokDoesDN same
I got a 2006 Dodge Charger R/T 5.7 v8 Hemi🖤
It is so much fun and a great first car 🖤
Yea I'm first car is a dodge charger 2011 SE, i got it a few months back, and I LOVE HER!!!! Always wanted a dodge charger as a kid. Agree with the insurance issue and gas, but I kinda knew that before I got her, trying to give her a nickname ... like Roxanne XD
That's awesome, the 3.6s are great
Haree Arumu how’s the dodge going? Is it reliable? I’m a teenager considering to get one as my first car and not a Honda 👍🏼.
How is the reliability
Just got my 2008 Dodge Charger, the other week, and I'm in love with my Charger, it's crazy I'm actually living a real life dream!!!!! :) gas can be a nightmare though.
I literally just got one. 09/10/2022. I love it so far.
I don't have a charger but I can pretty much relate... 18 years old and I own a 2005 Dodge Magnum SXT with the 3.5, it's a boat, no doubt, but it still is a little speedy, I purchased her with 52K miles for about $6,100 and insurance is about $110 per month. I love the magnum, lots of space, rides nice, and decent power. I do kind of hate the gas mileage though, I get about 14 MPG. None the less, like I said, its fun, reliable, and its a great car!
That's why I got my two chargers. They are for my two sons who are 9&10 now so not long and they'll be driving em!
NovaGreen Daily Diatribes wow nice
TheMilkMan Just trying to be some kind of dad at least. I always have full custody but you just never know how many more years I'll be here for sure.
Saleh 1 Then get a better job, don’t be racist
I just bought a 2006 hemi and I absolutely love it very fun first car
2006-07 R/T was and is my dream first car. But funny enough as the insurance photo you showed. My first car happens to be a Scion tC it's still really fun tho
I got a v6 charger it's nice and it's gold
i can find loads of used chargers for under 3000 cad on kijiji, mostly 06
I bought a 2007 with a blown v6 and I am now on the 3rd engine this sucks but fun car love it
Looking at an 08 with 130kmiles hope I get it looks fun to drive!
Ruben Monroy hope you got it bro!
Damn seeing those prices is making me rethink why I paid $7k on a 2008 when a 2010 is basically $5k
Studio Workshop newer year, less money, and possibly less miles
Yeah, but keep in mind prices are gonna go down more and more as the years go by, even a year can make a big difference (also prices were in CAD if it makes a difference)
Marspeed I only bought mine in April. I completely forgot about the currency aswell🤷🏽♂️
Don't feel bad...I bought an 09 for 10k back in 2015.
Deltoro_PR I paid $6,000 for a 2006 rt with 118,000 miles. It's in ruff shape but I'm fixing it up.
I got a 2006 rt and I’m loving it
Just bought 2010 sxt and i will say that your right about the insurance. men its a pain in the ass to find a cheap one to cover my car.
Enteng Kabistote exactly man
Enteng Kabistote whats your jnsustanrc likr ?
Just got a 2006 rt last week for my first car
cody Perreault how much did you pay?
cody Perreault so did I!
Yo I just got the same year Charger RT last week and I fucking love it
How has it been
Douglas Reynolds How is it going? just wondering so I know if I should look into one.
i have a 08 rt. the car has been amazing. i’m 17 and ive had it for about 6 months.
How’s it holding up and how many miles is on it now
Semi-related story:
I'm just about to purchase myself a 2010 Charger R/T with the 5.7L Hemi (July 2018). And let me tell you, I am SO fucking excited for it. However this will be my second car. My first was a 2003 Silverado with the 5.3L V8. While the Charger is a decent starter car, in my opinion I was a 10x better driver due to me having a Silverado first.
Since it was so big I learned how to park in tight spaces and be generally cautious about size. Since it was a pig on gas, I learned to drive smooth to save on fuel. It's powerful but slow to accelerate, so you can't get into as much trouble and won't get as many tickets. You learned power control as well, cause it had near 300hp going to one rear tire on a light back end (eventually the diff would lock but not before some squealing hehe). So when I went to drive the Charger with the 5.7 Hemi, I never felt like it was an unmanageable beast. I never chirped the tires or ever felt like I gave it too much gas. I wasn't worried about it's size for a sedan either.
And finally, having a pickup first will also teach you the most important lesson of all...
Never underestimate how fun a car (or truck) can be, no matter what it is. You'd be surprised how well a 2003 Silverado handles if you have the balls to try! I am still giddy at the thought of me having a V8 Charger, but I still kinda miss my truck.
Got an 09 Black charger as my first car too! has its issues but love the car honestly.
I found a 2006 charger with 36k miles for 11,500 i have worked and saved my money enough to buy it outright and i really want to buy it
I'm going to look at one similar this week
I'm super excited
Dedra Ford hope you get it!
All ways great reviews on your page great info for a younger driver
Just got a ‘14 black charger r/t back in October-first car. 3 months later still love it as much as when I was first surprised by it. Only complaint I have so far is gas. I don’t drive highway much, I live in a small town so 90 percent of my miles are city.
Christian Contreras awesome man sweet ride!
How much do you pay for gas ? How much to fill it up ? And on average how many miles per gallon ??
Just got a 2008 rt. I believe it was a police car for having a column shifter and it has that round interior light that turns red or regular lighting.
I have a Charger 2007 RT 5.7, bought it in 2010, I still have it and is my daily use car, engine and transmission still works like new, it has some details due the daily use, I probably have spent around 5 or 7k in the last 5 years in repairs and maintenance, most of the repairs where (sensors,shocks and front complete, A/C) and only a leaking problem solved with seals replacement, It's a great car, right now I'm thinking in buying a Challenger just for weekends car and keep the Charger for daily use, due it stills run smooth.
How many miles you buy it at
First vehicle is an 01 ram, still runs like a dream but needs some work done to it and after driving it for over a year I want to downsize for a daily driver, honestly looking for a charger with this body style I just absolutely love it for some reason, guess it just looks like a ram turned car
Just got my 2010 Dodge Charger Rallye with the 3.5 high-output. I love this car and wanted to have one like this for years! How is yours driving these days?
Big fan of your videos. Going to buy a charger and will need your advice😁👍
I’m currently driving an 02 ram 1500 with the 5.9L, and I’m looking at the v6 charger and I’m looking forward to its fuel economy lol. Good old Gertrude gets 11 mpg when I go to work😂
I am 20. Got my Charger 3.5L after watching your videos, lol. Very nice car, love it! Just 3900 CAD for 220000 kms
Канал ТруЪ технарей (ТруЪшки) glad the videos helped! Enjoy your charger
Well, we got the general, and we share the same rate as the mustang I used to drive. So a really cheap price per month.
debating on getting my first charger and after this im getting it. keep ya posted.
Bet because I want one when I get 16
Going to see an 07 charger after work tomorrow. Hopefully will be my first cat
Gymshark shirts 🤙🏽💪 I feel u homie
I’m 19. Trying for a 2011 charger. I will know if I got it tomorrow. Little late but I got the charger and so far I’m loving it. But now looking into the chargers more I want a hemi.😂
How’s the gas milage
Hey bud been watching your videos latley as I just bought a 08 charger 3.5 , just heard in this video you’re in Toronto, maybe we will have to make a video sometime bro! I’m only two hours east of you
first car, 1985 Cadillac sedan deville...V8! miss that car! I'm 33yrs old now and I just got my first '10 dodge charger V6 3.5! love it! I live in Kuwait and I do notice that it burns coolant fast, especially during the 50 celcius summers so I do have to keep an eye on the coolant level and I use a desert type coolant which is pink color. The A.C. keeps up very nicely but either way its too dam hot in this country!! the dodge charger is a very popular car in Kuwait so parts are cheap its just trying to find a good shop to install them, the dealerships charge way way too much!! the insurance I have is $70 for the whole year, lol yes I said for the whole year, Kuwait has a lot of good things!! I am slowly looking for MODS so this channel is very helpful and I'm also looking to educate myself as well. So far I have had to replace the radiator, alternator, engine O-rings, timing belt, water pump and some small things here and there with the pulleys and re did the suspension...the Kuwaiti that had this car before me didn't take care of it but I got it for $2900 USD and I put approx. $3000 USD into it so overall $6000 isn't too bad with 230,000km. I am very happy and it all runs great now!
gas is really cheap for me living in the middle east lol I pay for approx. 65lt 6 KWD (Kuwait dinar) which is under $20 USD lol for a full tank! I also commute to work so the high way miles are very very good!! I consume more gas on my day off driving around here and there and I get approx. 460-500km per week if I'm just commuting to work...and not going anywhere after work.
My mom might give me her 2008 charger, but we’ve recently have had a mouse infestation at my place so we haven’t ridden in it for a while, hopefully we can fix everything wrong with it and I can use it in highschool
Update: My mom is planning on giving me the charger IF they get a new 2021 Toyota Tacoma so hopefully next year I’ll start learning how to drive it
I got an 09 charger sxt about 6 months ago in the deep water blue, I've never seen that color charger before then and I loved it and I still do, I want to do some mods to it but I have to save for college
Had my 06 rt since 2010. Replaced my engine at 140k miles and now at 170k. Only thing about dodge is the car is heavy so replacing parts like control arms and tie rods are a norm
holy shit the droning is crazy in this car my head hurts from this video
Charger - check, tank top - check, u my friend qualify for fast and furious
I’m 18 years old, just bought a 2012 Dodge Charger SE with 100k miles for $7,791 first car and cheapest insurance I could find is 300 per month liability only. 500 per month full coverage
I’m 20 with a wreck I have a 2013 police charger v8 and I pay 161 with higher deductible
Boxxy hi I’m a first time buyer .. I’m looking at an 08 right now .
I got a new 2019 and I’m 16 and it’s been a really good car
Yo how much did you pay for insurance
Ay I’m from Toronto! Nice review I’m actually getting a 2007 sxt for my first car🙂
Did you end up getting it? How's the experience and insurance?
Just bought a 2010 charger and it's my first car I'm 17 years old
I pick up my 2010 sxt RWD this monday
My boss is giving me a charger for only $2000 he still working on it but he said "give me a week and I'll sell it to you." Although working at an auto shop gives headaches you can get some great deals if you find the right people.
Just got a 3.5L 2006 😎😎
Someone near my house is selling a 2010 Dpdge Charger SXT V6 for $3650. The car appears to be in good condition and it has 133k miles. Do you think this is a good deal? I'm going to check it out with my mechanic before buying.
Frederick Santana did you get it
The funny thing is I have a 2015 Mercedes e350 I crashed and am getting fixed tell me why I’m going back to my childhood and getting a 2010 rt over a rental
Can you play music using Bluetooth
i have a 2007 dodge v6 blue r/t charger and i love it
I've been considering buying a dodge magnum sxt for a while now as a second car the magnum being essentially a station wagon charger.
Right now I use a saturn but I've been wanting something bigger and faster that I can use for more work oriented activitys... Like hauling cargo and hauling ass
I honestly want a Plymouth duster for my first car
I'm torn between wanting a Challenger or a Charger, considering that they are both of my favorite vehicles and since I already got a Dodge truck, I want a car that I want to ride around town on Friday and Saturday nights with friends, go on a Sunday cruise while others are in church. Since I'm 25 with a high paying job, I'm asking myself do I want to pull the trigger on getting one or wait around for a few years and find one at a right and reasonable price.
So lincoln mark,ford ltd ,Honda civic ,acura Integra ,honda accord v6 VTEC ,and honda prelude it is as first car
Thanks
I gotta rt awd 2007 shits insane
Not sure if I should go with an 04 or 02 V6 stang or a charger, I could cop a “newer” used charger idk what to do
My first car is a 2014 Dodge Charger RT rear wheel drive
i really wanted to know more about the car, for example is it harder to drive it in the snow? Are speed bumps a huge problem? i really found the gas tip very helpful, due to me being 16 and buying my first car, heard a ton of cons about this car too, which made me quite hesitant but this video gave me hope :)
I made a video on driving it in the snow if you want to check that out! But it’s not good in the snow, you need snow tires and must be very careful. It’s great over bumps but the suspension wears out very fast I had to replace the front end twice in 4 years (cost of $1000-1500 each time). Now after 4 years of that same car (270,000 kms) it’s still going strong, nothing major broke down, only need to get fixing suspension both front and back over time. It was my first car at age 18 and got me through university. Was both fun and practical and I honestly would have done it all over again
Marspeed I’ve never thought you’d reply to my comment! Oh my god! I’m super interested in buying a Dodge Charger that was once a cop car, due to that it was torn from the inside, radio doesn’t work and the arm rest thingy is jankey and not well put, plus all the lights on the dashboard turn on, lady says it’s a sensor but I have my doubts about it, any advice?
Jennie Amador if you catch me at a good time I like to respond to interesting comments here and there that pop up haha :) I would have a mechanic check it out, it’s easy for people to lie or hide issues on a used car and even old cars in great condition will need work soon on something because parts break. I’d personally stay away seems like a lot to fix and repair unless you’re getting a crazy deal. If you find a car that was better taken care of you won’t be buying into someone else’s problems as much! Just my thoughts. I recently bought another charger, immaculate condition but still needed things like brakes and a steering part, just stuff that will wear out over time no matter how great the car is.
Marspeed I’m going to take it to auto zone, see if they can run a quick check on the car and see if they can tell me somethings about it, and the price I’m buying it for is so dirt cheap, still can’t wrap my head around the price lol, but it’s $1,700 (I know) it’s be nice if I can send photos of the car, the body isn’t bad at all except for a dent in the front, interior is okay except for the arm rest, and the “sensor”
Jennie Amador hiw is your vehicle holding up?
